That wouldn't be a bad project for GSoC as it isn't too large so it
means
we could actually see some results.
Feedback and help about this feature is welcome at

(we might create a bug report specific to it, but this is the location we have now)
There is a potential GSOC student already interested:

If you think something would be a good project for a student, put it on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects
Exactly. Slowly slowly that page is becoming a good reference for projects wanted by the community. Bigger than an annoying bug but still something one single person with some dedication and help could complete in a reasonable period of time.
I have been linking those projects proposals with bugzilla reports, creating new ones if needed. You are encouraged to do the same, it is a lot more efficient for tracking and documenting the related discussions.
